@WittyWolf @Alamantus Philomel looked at Rafael and then ran towards a building and then kicked off a ledge and jumped up and caught the rooftop and pulled himself up and then climbed up to his feet and then looked around the area, and then suddenly began to run across the rooftops then jumped off the rooftop and then landed next to a girl, he measured himself up correctly and then looked at the girl and gave her a wink "Hello there." He said politely. After getting no answer from her, Philomel turned his back to her and climbed up to a rooftop again and made his way back to Rafael, after seeing him, Philomel jumped down to him and stood by his side.

Titan was fairly confused by this odd boy, who knew his name, yet didn't know well enough to just use his alias instead. He detested the general public knowing his given name and was loathe to let that privacy be screwed by some kid that didn't know his own story. "I've never fought you, boy. But unless we're somewhere private with no chance of being overheard, my name is Titan. I never want to hear any other name pass your lips." Titan demanded as he finally came abreast of Kyato HQ. "I've got business here, are you coming as well?" Without waiting for a reply, he pushed the doors to the building open, the glass in the doors shattering against the walls. "SETO KYATO. I'VE GOT BUSINESS TO SETTLE WITH YOU." Titan roared, looking straight into one of many CCTV cameras.

@WittyWolf Philomel nodded in response to him and walked through the broken doors which Titan just broke down, Philomel seen Titan look at a Security Camera and walked past him to the second door, Philomel reached for the handle to the door and then twisted it open and stepped aside for titan to walk through it "I'll say what I want, Titan!" Philomel said with a raised voice to him, he drew his sword as a guard came running at them, Philomel being quick was already in front of the guard, he thrusted his sword in to the guards stomach and then pushed the body to Rafaels feet, with th the blood dripping out of the guards stomach.

Kyato frowned upon the footage and then pushed a button to open the doors that lead to his office, hopefully that would let them pass without any problems, but Kyato smiled as he didn't call of his guards, that would be the only problem for them to deal with. Kyato looked at Kouh and then smiled at her "If you want to take a few weapons feel free to get anything you want to have. I'd like to become friends in a sense." Kyato looked at JG and then nodded to her@The ghost in black

Randy finally made it to the blasted forgery. He walked in and nodded to the blacksmith. "Albeit a bit of a random request, I need to borrow your forge. I can offer you five gold to let me use the furnace, anvil and your tools." He asked as he walked over to the counter. "What say you?" Randy asked. The blacksmith turned around and looked at him with a questioning look. "And what about my forging skills? Are they not good enough for you?" He demanded. Randy shook his head and waved it off. "Of course not sir. I just merely enjoy the beauty of making things as well. I'm just looking to re-forge a sword a customer gave to me. I travel you see, and I can't very well carry a forge by my lonesome self." Randy explained. The blacksmith looked Randy up and down. "Fine, if you make a good job of it, I'll charge you three gold." He finally gave in. Randy nodded and walked over, beginning to heat up Ava's sword. @xXSINXx

@GingerBoi123 Akkina looked at the market and finally gave up on walking away, She pulled up her hood and hid in a group of people that were walking past the forge and then looked sideways at Randy, being in the group of people, She would be hidden from his sight, and she walked straight past him, in fact she stopped and then walked to the forge, having pulled her hood completely down to hide her face, Durandal wasn't with her. She pulled out a bag of two thousand gold and gave it to the Forge Master, and pointed to a shiny and delicate sword and then the man walked to it and then picked it up and gave it to her and took the gold "Thank you."She said with a husky voice.

@The SlendermanRandy turned when he heard that voice. It was Akkina's? No... no. It was different, but still it was too similar. He struck the sword after heating it with a hammer. And then looked at the hooded person. "Hey. Could you... come over here for a second?" He asked politely.

@GingerBoi123 Akkina turned her head towards Randy and then looked down to hide her face even more than before, hopefully he wouldn't recognize her and things would be particularly safe, but when he spoke to her, She backed off a little recoiling from him almost finding out what she was there for "I have to go somewhere, I need to save souls." She said with the same husky, but with a attempted voice change from her throat.

@The Slenderman Randy looked back down, hammering the sword again. "And that somewhere is... where?" He asked. This person changed their voice a little. Why?

@GingerBoi123@GingerBoi123 Akkina finally gave up on trying to hide her identity and then pulled down her hood and smirked at Randy and leant on the wall "Will you be there to help me try to beat Philomel.. Randy" Akkina said and then extended her closed fist to him and immediately smiled "I don't know if I could be able to defeat him, he is so much better than me." She added. Then began to walk away from slowly to wait for him and to get help with trying to find Philomel.

@The SlendermanRandy gave a smirk. "Thought you were leaving Akkina?" He questioned, hammering the sword yet again. The rapier blade was more and more looking like a katana. "I've got to finish this for a customer. Close up shop." Randy listed. He then looked straight at Akkina and smiled. "Then we can get that bastard."

@GingerBoi123 "That's okay, I can accompany you with that task " Akkina said and walked back to his location and sat down on a bench and looked at him doing his job and probably businesse. "We need to know his weaknesses, and I have no idea what they are." Akkina sighed and then looked at the sky and threw her hands up. Could Akkina beat Philomel, the greatest sword master in the world.. possibly not, but she was going to try

@The Slenderman
"Thank you mr. kyato, your generosity astounds me so in this case.... I'll take this" she said as she picked up a gold and silver battle axe that she immediately dropped into her basket. "Yeah I think we could be good friends" Kouh said and smiled back at Kyato "just tell me if you need help"

@The Slenderman

"Then you can leave my company, now. There are few conditions I impose on other men. That is one of them. Follow it, or be gone. I care not what choice you make." Titan stepped over the soon to be corpse, drawing his blade. Honestly, the boy was a pain in the ass rather than a help. He could've taken the whole of the Kyato guards alone, yet this unwarranted help had popped up of his own damn accord. The first two guards he cut down bled just like Philomel's kill. The next did not bleed, instead smelling like cooked beef as his sword burned rather than slashed through their bodies.

In little time, the large man was in front of Seto's office doors, bodies littering the path he'd taken. He stepped through the office doors, seeing no one actually in the room. Another door, this presumably some sort of weapon storage, stood open and voices emanated from within. "Seto, you've got some explaining to do!" He called out, even as he walked towards the open door.

@WittyWolf"We are not finished, Rafael, we still have a fight ." Philomel said and then smiled. Philomel broke off with Titan and then ran towards a building and then jumped on to it's roof and then looked around, while walking close to the edges of it searching for Akkina, he'd fulfil the prophecy, no matter what happens to him. He unsheathed his swords ready for any motion that could be a threat to any one. He looked over the sides of the building and seen a group of people that were going about their own personal lives, a shimmer of sadness passed his face, to the moment of where he was brought here to the East Market, a place where thousands of people came here and bargained, bartered, and made their own way through life by thievery and swindling. "Where are you Akkina." He growled, squinted his eyes and then suddenly ran and jumped off the building and landing in a circle of people. Philomels emotions were in a war with him, He didn't want to kill Akkina, but the prophecy states that, and he was going to make it work, he was going to kill Akkina, to get a better future for everyone and bring light to the engulfing darkness that were around the world.

@The Slenderman
Kouh moved the ring blade from her shoulder and began spinning it again before looking around the room, spotting a window moved over to it and opened it a crack and looked out it. The window faced the outer area area outside of the Kyato corp building. As she looked out the the window she spotted a man jump from the roof and land in the middle a group, he seemed a bit out of place but what Kouh was really worried about was the fact that he had been on the roof. Kouh swung her legs over the window sill and jumped out so she could follow the man tthough the rather large ring blade that she was carrying gave her away a bit. She caught up to Philomel Kouh pulled her hood up then reached up and tapped his shoulder to get his attention, "excuse me sir but what is your business here?" She asked.

Juan is see Kouh on the roof of jumping and is jump up to speaking with her. He is eyes. The smile begins. "Hello. I am Juan and I am boxing. What are you on this roof up so here?" Juan is wait for the answering of him.

A skinny young boy with brown hair and blue eyes saw Juan, the world famous boxer on the roof.
Excitedly he quickly climbs his way up the wall and onto the roof.
"Juan" he shouts as he slowly makes his way over to the boxer.
With a big smile he says. "Wow, nice to meet you! My name is Arlen."@Fiambre

Humphrey opened the shutters on his storefront, breathing in the fresh morning air and feeling the warmth of the rising sun on his face.

He never found out what happened to his guard Akkina, but that's how things work in the East Market. People come and go. The way Humphrey figures it, all you can do is treat people how you'd like to be treated whenever you can and then just hope for the best. He had been out of the city with family for two years before checking back to see if things were safe. It was a nice break, but he was itching to return. Nothing unusual had come up for the past year he had been back, which was a nice change of pace.

At midday, the bell over the door dings as a petite woman with a green, hooded cloak over a brown tunic walks in. Her freckled face has an expression of awe as she looks around at the trinkets and baubles lining shelf after shelf and table after table throughout the pawn shop, and the many tight braids of her light brown hair whip around as she looks from object to shiny object.

Humphrey smiles at her expression and says
"Welcome in! Is this your first time in the East Market?"

The clunking of her long, brown, steel-toed boots stops as she jolts upward, noticing Humphrey for the first time.

"Oh! Hello! Yes, it is. Is it that obvious?" the woman's voice pipes out like a lark's voice as her pale cheeks turn a deep red.

Humphrey laughs
"When you've been around here as long as I have, you get a sense for who's new. Are you lookin' for anythin' in particular, or just seein' the sights?"

The woman smiles, cheeks still red, and says "Just seeing some sights, really. Everything here is so beautiful and exciting!"

Humphrey beams a warm smile and holds his hands wide, saying "Well then, welcome! You'll find lots of interesting things here in the market! If you need any help or see anythin' you like, you just let me know and I'll come right on over to help you out."

The woman clomps closer to Humphrey, holding out her hand "Thanks you so much! My name is Saffron, and I will certainly come for help if I needing it!"

Humphrey takes her hand and gives it a firm shake. "Much obliged, miss Saffron! I'm Humphrey. That's a nice little accent you've got there; where are you from, if you don't mind me asking?"

Saffron's cheeks flush to red again immediately as she stammers, completely dropping her attempt to hide her accent, "Oh! M-my... I trying so hard to the hiding of my accent!"

Humphrey's face becomes the picture of compassion as he places his other hand on top of hers to reassure her "No, please don't worry, it's very charming! Trust me. Just promise me one thing—be careful around here. You seem like a real sweet girl, and I'd hate to hear if anything bad happened to ya."

Saffron looks up fighting back tears and nods, pulling her hand gently away. "I am sorry, I have study so hard before to come here, and the first person I speak with sees right through... I guess I have lot to learn still..."

"Don't you worry, you're doing great! I don't know nothin' 'bout you, but I do know that learnin' a new language is no easy task! I'll leave you to your explorin'. Don't forget, if ya need anythin' just give me a holler!" With that, Humphrey winks and goes further back behind the counter, grabs an open book from atop a stool, and sits down, leaning back to read.

Saffron's wide-eyed wonder returns as she begins looking around the shop again, picking up and examining all sorts of shiny goods.
